Edwards didn't understand the protocol or its ramifications, Dietz woefully explained that everyone - including them, had to die, or someone else would do it for them, as she held up a weapon against Edwards. Tucker Edwards, the ship's pilot, and Capt. When the Scenario Five order came, most of the crew complied, except for the final two SCAF Navy servicemen: Pvt. The homing missiles and bombs are never seen in use of combat in the series, aside from the QTE scene in Dead Space 2 where the bomb launcher platforms break from the impact of the Tormentor hitting the ship, causing the bombs to leak into the vacuum.Not much is known about the original purpose of the Conning Tower, but during the Sovereign Colonies Armed Forces' expedition to Tau Volantis, they used it to store the " infected soldiers" bodies.The symbols say "DEAD SPACE I BELIEVE" ( ), which was an easter egg for the first game. There are two vertical lines of Marker symbols written in orange on the front hull of the ship.Gabe Weller is also shown standing at the cabin door while the gunship is descending to a landing platform in Dead Space 2: Severed. It is likely that the gunship possesses some form of auto-pilot, as Ellie is seen reaching for Isaac at the doorway as the gunship pilots itself out of the Government Sector.During Isaac's first encounter with the Pack near The Concourse, there is a toy shop with a picture of an EA model gunship available for purchase, exactly the same as the one seen in-game.Ellie's screams can be heard in the background. Isaac struggles to move himself forward but is pulled back into the engine fire and incinerated. If the player fails to complete the QTE, Isaac's thrusters will suddenly malfunction as the gunship flies ahead of him, sucking him into its thruster.Should the event be completed successfully, Ellie will pull Isaac into the ship before the game ends.A quick time event will initiate as soon as he reaches the ship's rear engines. The ship has two doors, allowing a quick and easy enter to a combat situation.ĭuring the final moments of Dead Space 2, Isaac has to reach the gunship piloted by Ellie as he maneuvers his way past the debris field. The ship most likely has a storage for emergency EVA suits such as the one Ellie Langford used. Inside, the ship has two seats in the cockpit, together with holo-displayers, thruster switch and other key functions of the ship.
Together, this diverse equipment allows the gunship to function within times of peace as a patrol craft and in hostile situations as a dedicated gunship. This would give it an edge over Wai Lao-class shuttles such as the USG Kellion with their more conventional, fixed engine thrusters. The gunship's engine control nozzles are made out of three large, independently guiding thrusters, enabling the ship to execute sophisticated and highly flexible maneuvers and to quickly compensate against side winds and turbulence. By the looks of it, this can be adjusted so that the windscreen acts as a normal window, making the ship more ideal on planets or other areas where there is no need for polarized screens.
The windscreen appears to be polarized, which is useful in space combat where the sun will block out the pilot's view. One variant that pursued Isaac Clarke featured a retractable slat armor assembly, presumably meant to protect the front of the vehicle from incoming fire or debris. There is a third headlight on top of the ship that most likely serves as a vertical light source. At the front are a pair of swivel-arm mounts, occupied by high-powered searchlights to detect and illuminate targets hidden from view. The armament includes a pair of fully rotateable tri-barrel gatling cannons under the nose, six homing missiles used for dog-fights in ship-to-ship encounters, sensor and communication jamming devices as well as fin-stabilized napalm bombs suspended behind swing doors on the belly of the ship, presumably used for atmospheric ground bombardment on enemy bases. The EarthGov Gunship boasts a wide array of weaponry and technical hardware in its role as a support and assault craft. As a rough comparison to Isaac, the ship is at least 10 meters or 33 feet in length from the cockpit to the tip of the thrusters and close to 3-4 meters or 10-13 feet in height.
